Please post your experience with your LAST set of tires. Not this set (they aren't done yet!) - the one before. I'll explain below why I started this thread.
Did they wear evenly? Center wear, shoulder wear, alignment wear?
Brand? Did that play a role in your results?
What about vehicle? Was that a factor?
How about OEM vs replacement?
Did you use the placard pressure or something else? Did that play a role in the wear?
Just tell me what happened - good, bad, or indifferent!!
******************************************************
Why am I starting this thread? As many of you know I'm an engineer with a major tire manufacturer. I work in the warranty end of the business, so all I see are returns. Not only is this a tiny fraction of the tires produced, I only see what MY company produced.
I want to be sure I have my head screwed on straight about what NORMALLY happens to tires - and I am asking you guys to help. What I am interested in is your experience. There is no right or wrong answer - just responses.
So fire away!
